About Jeffrey
I am Jeffrey Danchie, former professional basketball player with over three decades of service to the sport. Basketball changed my life and equipped me with several tools that have shaped me to become the person I am today. I love to play, teach and guide all players/students to the best of their ability. As a founder of JD Skills School I use basketball as a vehicle to impact, empower and elevate all my clients. I competed for my national team England U14/16/18 and earned a scholarship to high school in America. I went on gain a scholarship in the UK to the prestigious University of Marion's, (St Marks & St Johns) in Plymouth along side playing for the former BBL team Plymouth Raiders. During my time I was selected to play for English Universities whilst completing my studies to become a Physical Education Teacher. I now teach PE in mainstream secondary education and run my coaching business using basketball to help over 500 clients and counting.

Reviews
All the reviews collected from students are verified by our team. They are therefore reliable and correspond to a real experience with Jeffrey.
Perfect! Jeffrey is an exceptional coach and mentor. As a former professional player, his knowledge of the game is outstanding, but what really stands out is the way he teaches and inspires young players. From the very first session, he brought incredible energy, positivity, and professionalism.
He quickly identified areas my son needed to improve and created a structured, motivating plan to help develop every aspect of his game — from fundamentals and decision-making to confidence and discipline on the court. Every session is engaging, challenging, and enjoyable, and you can genuinely see the passion he has for helping players improve.
My son came away from the lesson more confident, focused, and excited to keep working hard. Jeffrey’s experience as an ex-pro really shows in the quality of coaching he delivers. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a top-level basketball coach who truly cares about his students’ development both on and off the court.- Absolutely great lesson. Very enthusiastic to learn and put a a structured plan in place to continue to develop all areas of his game. Thank you Solomon.Jeffrey's response :

My son have been attending sessions with Coach Jeffrey for over a year and has thoroughly enjoyed his time. Jeffrey has been able to work with him to develop skills and an advanced understanding of the game. This has been hugely beneficial as he progresses in the sport.
Jefferey is a trustworthy tutor as he explains everything in detail which translates his teachings into real life situations in the game of basketball. Level of understanding and upbringing towards his students are matched to no one. Highly recommend!!
Jeffrey is a great coach. He has a eye for details and is excellent at teaching the fundamentals of basketball to the younger generation of players. He is also great at teaching more advanced skills as he is able to draw from his wealth of experience as a professional basketball player. I highly recommend Jeffrey as a basketball coach and tutor
What sets him apart is the ability to share knowledge with clarity and genuine care, turning every exchange into an opportunity to learn and grow. It’s no surprise he is building an elite reputation in coaching circles. Jeffrey creates environments where players learn how to elevate their game and uncover new confidence in how they see themselves.
If you have a coach already, you will benefit from sessions with Jeffrey. If you've never had a coach before you will benefit from sessions with Jeffrey.
If you have desires of squeezing everything you can out of your skills and the game, you will benefit from sessions with Jeffrey.
I want to give a huge thank you to Coach Danchie. My son has been training with him in private sessions since U14, and his guidance, kindness, and care have supported not only my son’s basketball skills but also his overall growth on this journey.
What impresses me most is how different he is from other coaches—he goes the extra mile by preparing thoughtful post tournament reviews, offering insights that the team alone could never provide.
We’ll always be truly grateful for the support.
Highly recommended!Jeff is a great communicator and motivator. His ability to develop players’ skills while fostering teamwork and confidence in a welconing, family like environment, makes him an outstanding coach!
Jeffrey Danchie is an extremely knowledgeable and passionate coach who has a deep understanding of the game. He has a very nurturing approach but insists on high standards and fair play. He is as much a mentor to my son as a basketball coach. I can't recommend him highly enough.
Jd skills school is a phenomenal development programme and has helped me massively in my career and developing my skills that have led led me to be able to compete at many high levels of basketball including representing and competing at national team level for England and Great Britain. This also went on to help me receive a full scholarship to an american college.
If you want to learn, this is your guy, bags of experience and a good coach, stand up guy.
Jeffrey makes it easy and fun to work with, the passion and dedication to ensure we as students get it right is worthy of appraisal. Not many coaches have patience like him and it’s necessary
An excellent and trusted coach that has helped me along my journey. Been working with coach Jeffery for over a year now, he has helped me in countless ways whether on and off the court. Highly recommend to anyone aiming to improve their basketball knowledge and skills.
My name is Jody Kerr, played basketball national league at the 16 through 18 level. Then went to college to play CBL. I started training with Jeff Danchie summer of year 11. One thing I can point out is. He’s very honest. He’s gonna tell you for how it is, how to improve, not sugarcoat your mistakes. Rather, he’s actually going to improve you as a player and as a person. Coach Danchie understands levels and fundamental skills to help you grow and reach a play style and ability which will help you play at the next level and also get seen by coaches and people looking for talent. In my time with a lot of coaches, skills developers . You see what works and what doesn’t. With practice and commitment to teaching coach Danchie will help you hone skills and transform your overall game.
I have been coached by Coach Jeff for nearly a year and a half now. Coach is very knowledgeable having played basketball at a professional level. He is also well-known amongst the UK basketball community and locally also, and has been a great tutor. Knows how to tailor coaching to many individuals and allows them to progress quickly. Highly recommended.
Jeff is a fantastic basketball coach and teacher, always uplifting and very inspirational! I would encourage everyone to take lessons with him asap today, you will leave feeling amazing and better than you arrived! Can’t wait to have more bball sessions with him, Jeff is the Best!!!! Xxx
Jeffrey has helped me dramatically both on and off the basketball court, improving my Confidence and social skills both in sport and life. His communication when helping him you get better is nothing but great he sparks confidence and speaks motivation when your struggling or tired pushing you the extra mile.
I would recommend coach danchie to anyone in whom is in need of a very professional trainer who gives insightful as well as intentional feedback for you development. He is very reachable via instagram direct message and is wuick to reply back to any enquirers sourrounding many of his services such as film breakdowns, group sessions and 1 on 1 sessions also. Join now and be great !
Once a Basketball student Jeffrey is dedicated and knowledgeable in the field of Basketball with years of coaching experience He knows what it takes for student to achieve their goal while enjoying the game.
Jeffrey is an excellent basketball coach! His lessons are not only well-structured and easy to follow, but also full of encouragement. He takes the time to understand each student’s skill level and adapts his teaching to help them improve step by step. What really stands out is how much confidence he builds in his students he motivates them to believe in themselves while still challenging them to push their limits. Whether you’re new to the game or looking to refine your skills, Jeffrey creates a positive and supportive environment that makes learning both fun and effective. Highly recommended!
